This Section focuses on the basic operations required to

power up the system, to use it, to make simple everyday

adjustments to both its Cinema and Music functions,

and to turn it off. More advanced adjustments are

covered in Section 2: Advanced Operations. Your

certiﬁed JBL Installer will be glad to overview these

materials with you.

1.1 Powering Up

The system can easily and quickly be turned on using

the Remote Controller, pictured on this page. Simply

push the button marked POWER and the Surround

Processor, Ampliﬁers, Equalizers, Crossovers, and

Speakers will all automatically power up, in sequence.

Next, turn on the Source Devices you want to use —

VCR, Laser Disc player, CD, Television/Video, Audio

Cassette Player.

You can turn these on in any order.

1.2 Basic Remote Control

Operations

Your JBL Synthesis Remote Control unit handles

virtually all of the functions of the system. Basic

Operations include Selecting Source Devices, and

Adjusting the Master Volume.

1.2.1 Selecting Source Devices

Examine the lower half of the Remote Controller until

you have found six buttons with labels above each.

These buttons allow you to directly access a particular

source device and play it through the system. The

buttons are labeled “S-VID-1”, “S-VID-2, "VCR",

“VDP”, “CD", and “AUX”. Your Installer, with your

consultation, has determined the sources available for

use in your system. Therefore certain buttons may be

inoperative, corresponding to the sources not present.

To select a source device, simply press the

corresponding button. The surround processor will

engage that source.

1.2.2 Adjusting the Master Volume

The Master Volume buttons at the top right hand part of

the Remote Controller are used to adjust the Output

Levels of the system. Press the ▲ button to make things

Louder, and the ▼button to make things Softer. These

do not adjust the Input Levels of the Source Devices. In

fact, we recommend that you do not do so. They have

been set and calibrated to mesh ﬂawlessly with the

system, and adjusting them directly — either through

the dials on their front panels or via their own separate

Source Remote Controllers, can throw the system out of

balance.

NOTE: If, over time, you notice that one Source Device

consistently sounds Too Loud or Too Soft, call your

Certiﬁed Dealer. He or she will adjust the levels and

re–set the new levels as your “Reference Levels” to

which you can return if the system’s sound goes awry.

1.3 Basic Cinema Operations

1.3.1 Adjusting the Cinema Volume

To adjust the Volume in Cinema Mode, make sure that

the Video is powered up and that it has been selected as

the source. Then simply adjust the volume ▲or ▼

using the MASTER VOLUME buttons.

1.4 Basic Music Operations

1.4.1 Adjusting the Music Volume

To adjust the Volume in Music Mode, make sure that the

appropriate Music Source Device is powered up and

that it has been Selected as the Source. Then simply

adjust the volume ▲or ▼using the MASTER

VOLUME buttons, as shown on the left.

Link Forward: See Section 2: Advanced Operations,

page 8.

1.4.2 Adjusting the Music Balance

To adjust the Front/Back Balance in Music Mode, make

sure that the appropriate Music Source Device is

powered up and selected as the Source. To add more

sound to the Rear Ambient Surround Speakers, press

the ▲button marked Ambience + on the remote

controller. For less sound from the Ambient Surrounds,

press the ▼button. To restore the original pre–set

balance, press the Center button, REF, which will set the

system back to its Reference Levels.

Again, if your adjustments do not produce the desired

effects, consult with Section 2: Advanced

Operations.

If you are not able to adjust the system to your liking

using the procedures outlined therein, call your

Synthesis Dealer.

OPERATIONS

1.5 Turning the System Off

There is no preferred order of components when turning

the system off. However, there is one caution you should

follow:

NOTE: Do not turn the system off while any Source

Device is running and producing sound. Always make

sure all Source Devices are in “Idle” before pressing the

main POWER button.

Failure to do this can produce a noticeable “pop”, and

can, over time, damage your components. If you need to

turn off the sound to the system suddenly, for example,

to take a phone call or to reply to someone, press the

MUTE button.

Notes

There are some Operations which go beyond the

“basics” of the system and address its full array of

functional capacities in detail. Before reading this

Section, the Owner should have already read and

mastered Section 1: Basic Operations. Your certiﬁed JBL

Synthesis Installer will be glad to walk you through any

or all of the information covered in this Section.

2.1 Advanced Cinema

Operations

2.1.1 Ambience Level Adjustment

If you feel that the degree of Ambience — sound

coming from the Ambient Surround Speakers — is too

high or too low, you can adjust it by pressing the

AMBIENCE + and AMBIENCE – buttons. Pressing the

AMBIENCE + button increases the sound level of the

Surrounds; pressing the AMBIENCE – button

decreases the level. To reset the level to the “Reference

Level” as preset by your JBL Synthesis Installer, press

the REF button once.

2.1.2 Panorama Adjustment

Panorama refers to the degree of stereo separation

generated by the Left and Right Main Speakers when

listening to the simulated stereo of Mono recordings or

movies. This can be adjusted by using the SOUND

STAGE, CENTER, and ▼buttons, located at the left

side of the remote controller.

Link Forward: See Mono Enhancer, under 2.1.8,

page 13.

Pressing the SOUND STAGE button increases the

separation, spreading the sound further.

Pressing the CENTER button reestablishes the preset

Reference Level.

Pressing the button with the ▼button decreases the

degree of Panorama or separation.

2.1.3 Setting Time Delay

Time Delay refers to the delay in onset of the Ambient

Speakers compared to the Main LCR Speakers. The

preset level is 15 milliseconds.

For an added sense of spaciousness, the listener can

press the DELAY ▲button, which increases the delay

from 15 to 30 mS in 5 mS steps. This can be effective

with longer, narrower rooms, or with some sources

which require a sound which is a bit more “echo–like”

than standard. This enhanced setting applies more

typically to Dolby Pro–Logic Surround and THX

sources, but has additional applications in music,

35mm and 70mm modes.

Pressing the DELAY ▼button reduces the Delay from

30 back to 15 mS.

2.1.4 Center Speaker Level

Some listeners like more or less sound coming out of

the Center Main Speaker. This can depend both on the

listener’s ears and on the material generating the sound.

In THX or Dolby Pro-Logic Surround modes the Center

Channel should be left on. To do this, simply press the

CENTER ON button. For some sources, some listeners

will want to enhance the level of sound coming from the

Center Speaker. To do this, press the CENTER BOOST

Button.

2.1.5 Woofer Equalization

While the JBL Synthesis System is calibrated to provide

awesome amounts of clear, clean bass, some listeners

might prefer a touch more bass for some sources. This

cannot be adjusted from the Remote Controller, but must

be done using the BASS EQ dial to the left of the

INPUT control on the Surround Processor.

The preset bass is encoded at the off or zero position. To

boost the bass level, slowly turn the dial clockwise a

little at a time until it meets your auditory needs. A full

17 db of boost is available, so go slow to avoid

shocking the equipment or your ears.
